Coca-Cola , Target and Stanley Black & Decker have all sold off in recent months .

Coke 's valuation has come down to a level below its historical average, and it now trades at a discount to the S&P 500.

Target 's dirt cheap valuation makes up for its setbacks.

Stanley Black and Decker is a value play for patient investors.

Stanley Black & Decker has been overhauling its cost structure to pay down debt, improve the balance sheet, and chart a path toward higher margins.

By 2025 , the company's goals are to get to $2 billion in cost savings by simplifying its operating margin and reducing corporate complexity.

But unfortunately, it has already run into challenges, including an earnings miss and a possible delay in its recovery path.

The company stands out as an intriguing Dividend King to buy for investors who are confident about a recovery in consumer spending.
